parsing strings.

[qwertylol]

$matches = StringRegExp($string, '[^0]{1,}', 3)

_ArrayDisplay($matches, 'found')

the above is used to parse strings like 0002342350023423400014234000234234.

how do I tell how many items there are in that array?

What I need to know is how many items there are in the array.

how do I do it?

Try looking at the UBound function, UBound($matches) should work nicely.

I started writing this demo because I though StringRegExp() returned the count in [0], but it doesn't. Oh well:

#include <array.au3>

$string = "0002342350023423400014234000234234"
$matches = StringRegExp($string, '[^0]{1,}', 3)
_ArrayDisplay($matches, 'Got: ' & UBound($matches))
